March 23, 1965 A. SPRAGUE AUTOMOBILE SAFETY BELT 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Sept. 18, 1963 INVENTOR. ,Spragae ZFZZuZ" United States Patent 3,174,798 AUTQMUBHLE SAFETY BELT Arthur Sprague, Chicago, llll (117 Avery St, Apt. B, Hot Springs, Ark.) Filed Sept. 18, 1963, Ser. No. 309,712 Qlaims. (Ci. 297-385) This invention relates to safety belts for automobiles and the like, and more specifically to a novel safety belt of improved form affording greater safety and comfort to the user than heretofore available.
A general object of the invention is to provide a novel safety belt which comprises a waist-encircling belt portion with a quick-release belt buckle to facilitate its use.
A further object of the invention is to provide a novel safety belt which is not only easy to put on and take off but which does not inhibit normal activity of the user.
Another object of the invention is to provide a novel safety belt which may be applied to conventional attachments in current automobiles and which may be easily adapted for use in any vehicle.
The invention comprehends the provision of a novel belt buckle which comprises a pair of side straps adapted for connection to the flooring or frame of a vehicle, the belts passing between the seat and back portions of the vehicle seat structure and having novel buckles connected to their upper ends, the buckles admitting a waist encircling belt which is cinched about the waist of the user.
Another object of the invention is to provide a novel safety belt which has a waist portion adjustable in its attachments to the anchor belts to accommodate users of various girth so that it can be worn comfortably.
A further object of the invention is to provide a novel safety belt which comprises a waist-encircling loop connected at opposite sides to the floor structure by a pair of side belts which are passed under the backrest of a seat at such an angle that upon forward movement or lurch of the users body as during an accident, the side belts will tend to straighten out and in doing so react against the yieldable nature of the back-rest member as well as the back edge of the seat member (it being understood these members being normally made up of interconnected springs and the like) whereby reducing the instantaneous shock imposed upon the body of the user to minimize injury by controlling movement of the users body in an easing, gentle manner.
These and other objects and advantages inherent in and encompassed by the invention will become more readily apparent from the following specification and drawings, wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a fragmentary perspective view of a vehicle seat provided with my novel, improved safety belt unit;
FIGURE 2 is a side elevational view of the safety belt illustrated in FIGURE 1, with the seat being shown in dotted lines, and illustrating the attachment of the safety belt to the vehicle;
FIGURE 3 is a front elevational view of the novel safety belt, the seat being shown in phanton lines and the vehicle floor being shown in section taken essentially on line 3-3 of FIGURE 2;
FIGURE 4 is an enlarged front view of the quickrelease buckle;
FIGURE 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of the buckle taken substantially on line 5-5 of FIGURE 4;
FIGURE 6 is a transverse sectional view taken on line 5-6 of FIGURE 4;
FIGURE 7 is an enlarged fragmentary side elevational view of one of the side buckles and portions of belting connected thereto;
FIGURE 8 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially on line 88 of FIGURE 7; and
FIGURE 9 is an enlarged vertical sectional view showing the attachment of the belt unit to the vehicle structure.
Describing the invention in detail and having particular reference to the drawings, there is shown my novel safety belt unit 2 which comprises a waist-encircling belt loop 3 which has free end portions 4 and 5, the end portion 4 being passed through an eye 6 in a base 7 of the body portion 8 of the buckle iii. The end portion 4 is formed into a loop and secured as by stitching at 11 to the adjacent portion of belt 3.
The buckle base 7 comprises a pair of laterally spaced cars 12 which project from the lateral edges of base 7 substantially normal thereto. The cars 12 are provided with coaxial openings which admit a pintle 13 therethrough, said pintle being in the form of a nut and bolt, the bolt having a head 14 at one end engaging the outer side 15 of one ear 12 and the nut 17 being threaded on the other end of said bolt and engaging the outer side 16 of the other lug.
The pintle passes through a bore 18 in an eccentric looking portion 19 of a locking latch generally designated 20, said eccentric portion 19 having a toothed section 21 which in the latching position engages the end portion 5 which is passed between the eccentric locking portion 19 and the base wall 7. The eccentric toothed section 21 penetrates the belt, which may be a cotton or synthetic webbing or leather etc, and urges the belt against wall 7. The latch comprises a handle portion 22 which is connected to the eccentric portion. The handle extends over the base wall 7 and has an outturned finger hold 23 at its free end by which the latch is rotated in an outward direction against the latching bias of the torsion spring 25 which is sleeved over one end of pintle 13. The spring 25 has one end 26 extending normal to its axis into a slot 27 in the portion 19 at one side of a counterbore 28 which is coaxial with bore 18, the counterbore 28 admitting the spring 25 therein. The spring 25 has an axially extending end portion 30 which projects into an opening 31 (FIGURE 4) in an adjacent ear 32.
The belt 3 is provided at its side portions 32, 32 with adjusting means in the form of a series of longitudinally spaced reinforced eyelets 33, 33. Each intermediate portion 32 of the belt 3 is laced through a vertical slot 35 over a vertical locking bar 36 and through a vertical slot 37 in a side buckle 3?. The side buckle 38 comprises a rectangular frame 39 which provides top and bottom sections or bars 4%, 41 which interconnect with end bars 42, 43 and the intervening bar 36. Bar as is provided with a pin 44 which is selectively entered into a selected eye of the respective series of eyes 33.
The lower end portion 41 of each buckle 38 is integrated with a diagonal downwardly and rearwardly extending bracket or anchor portion 46 which is preferably disposed at an angle of 45 to the buckle portion 38. Anchor portion 46 is provided with a rectangular eye 47 through which there is looped the upper end portion 48 sewed at 49 to the remaining portion of a side strap 50.
Each side strap 50 is passed over the rear portion 51 of a vehicle seat 52 and under the lower edge 53 of a back-rest 54 of the seat 52 and is twisted intermediate its ends as at 55. The lower end portion 56 of each strap 50 is adjustably secured to an anchor buckle 57 by being laced behind bar 58, through slot 59, in front of bar 66 through slot 61, behind bar 62, through slot 63, in front of bar 64, through slot and behind bar 66. The bars 58, 60, 62 and 64 and the lower bar 65 are interconnected by side bars 66, E7.
The lower bar 65 has an eye 68 which admits a U- shaped anchor bracket 69 therethrough. The bracket 69 a has outturnecl flanges 70 which are apertured and admit bolts 71 therethrough which are secured to the vehicle frame 72 which as herein shown may be the floor which may be reinforced by a bottom plate 73 through which the bolts 71 are passed.
It will be seen that the bolts 71 pass through suitable apertures in the circular disks 74 which are placed on the top of the flooring 72.
Thus, it Will be seen a novel, simpleand elfective safety belt has been disclosed which provides adjustment for dilferent body sizes and is easy to apply and remove by the user.
It will be understood that the lengths of the side belts behind the resilient seat 52 and the lengths of the side belts from beneath the resilient back rest to the side buckles are positioned at such angles to the waist-encircling loop portion of the belt that upon the side belt 2 tending to straighten the seat and the back rest are deflected and yield resiliently to prevent injuries.
Having described a preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be readily apparent that various other forms will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art within the scope of the appended claims.
